Article screening and comparison of results between reviewers

ellelever

Hi all,

I'm doing a scoping review and have my results from database searches (2500 articles) in a unique Zotero group library.

I now want to screen the articles for inclusion, and then compare my results with those of a second reviewer to resolve any discrepancies. Does anyone have any tips or a workflow for doing this in Zotero? Or is it best to use specialised software such as Covidence for this?

Thanks in advance!

I have a Zotero plugin for this sort of task in the planning stages, but it won't be ready for at least a year.

I would really recommend the Rayyan app: https://systematicreviewsjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13643-016-0384-4

It's also free and is really nicely done. It makes the article screening process much smoother.
